My Approach to Helping

My philosophical approach to psychotherapy begins by raising the clients awareness. Believing that insight into your own thoughts and emotions will lead you to question the cause and effect realationship that created them. By doing so, we can safely engage in the journey of how you are assembled to change the way in which you are built. All of which is designed for you to embark on a new pilgrimage as a the person that you tell me that you want to be.

My View on the Purpose of Psychotherapy

I believe the purpose of psychotherapy is to provide change as directed by the client's goals to improve the client's overall functioning and wellness.

Important Factors for Choosing a Therapist

The most important factors I believe in choosing a therapist are first,experience. Many therapists take time to refine their techniques. To find out what kind of work they do best. The issues that are brought to us are frequently serious. Secondly, a positive therapeutic relationship requires identification between the client and the therapist. The confidence a client needs in order to establish trust in their therapist can only develop by meeting the therapist in person.

Groups I Work With

Approximately half of my case load are adults with a variety of issues. See the list of treatment I offer to see if I have the specialty your looking for. After nearly 20 years in practice the conditions I have listed as specialties are those where I can affect the most change.

The other half of my case laod are young people beginning with age 8yrs.I have specialized in the treatment of impulse control disorders such as ADHD and Spectrum disorders such as Asperger's. Many of these young people will take part in my experiential group therapy sessions to build on their focus, task persistance, listening skills and cooperation. In addition, my younger clients will build social skills and learn to empathize with others. All of which will translate to improved cooperation at home and in school.
